Day Mountain Bike Tours 1. Mt. Tamalpais-West Peak 2. Folsom Lake-Granite Bay 3. Lake Tahoe-North Lake 4. Sierra Foothills-Auburn 5. Lake Tahoe-South Lake 6. Napa 1. Mt. Tamalpais-West Peak Mt. Tamalpais is considered by many to be the backyard of where the roots of mountain biking began about 25 years ago. It all started when a radical put oversized rubber tires and gears on his cruiser to rip up and down the trails of this landmark peak just north of San Francisco. As the locals see it, this is a mecca for mountain biking. Mt. Tam still offers many heart-stopping trails that offer magnificent terrain and vistas of the ocean and bay below. This ride begins near downtown Mill Valley on the Old Railroad Grade. From there it is a solid 7-mile (7% grade) up to the top of this 2,500-foot peak. We will stop at the West Point Inn for the breathtaking views, water, snacks and a quick rest before saddling up for the last portion of our climb. We will lock our bikes at the visitor's center and hike the remaining mile or so to the top where we'll soak in the panoramic 360-degree views and revel in the ambiance while eating lunch. Then it's time to relax and let gravity take its course as we cruise all the way to the bottom. Expect to see plenty of Bishop Pines, Douglas firs and Chaparral as we experience one of mountain biking's original destinations. Trip Details:
